Been a while since I've posted; just been browsing every body else's rants and ideas, anyway, I've added a few things since the new year - mainly one up on back and one down on rear (sprockets) (plus Speedo Healer gadget, needed it- about 17% over-read), head and swing arm loobed/serviced, crash bobbins and most importantly RIM STRIPES!!!!!
What ya think!!?? Errr, I'm not sure either.

The yellow stripes on the grey wheels doesn't contrast well IMHO, but it might grow on me. I think it'll look better with black rims (is this what the later model had as standard or am I mistaken?).
Anyway, hope to see a lot of you in Wales Fri eve. Ta for now. Griff.

Looks good in my opinion Griff, subtle but noticeable. Nice. Enjoy your trip to Wales with the rest of the hoolies.

Seriously though, I like the yellow rim stickers, they suit the bike. That's one very clean looking storm you got there.
Have Fun.

I took this pic today aswell, can't see the wheels but just looking better and better as I tweak here and there!!!
I put the bluey type main and 'side' bulbs in and they look fresher and not as yellowy (old fashioned), also painting the belly pan made a big difference. Getting there. Not sure where, but there!!!
Oh and Carl, you gotta love the balance bike! Ill post a recent pic of it - its ace!!

Looks good, nice to see you sneaking an aircraft into the background. What is it?
I am also thinking to tryout yellow rim tape on mine, but it has black wheels, so should stand out nicely.
So looks like at least 3 fast ones going to Wales, we will have to plan some stops for the others to catch up

Excellent composition, you take good pics, nice angles.
Getting there. Not sure where, but there!!!
Front forks.
Loving it!!!!
That's superb

What a lovely thing to do while recuperating. You could make money selling them.
I got to say though, Black would not suit it. Yellow is perfect as it's made for a child you need to keep the speed down.
